The single scart socket on the back of the Sky HD box can be used for that purpose.
Use a scart lead to connect that socket to the VCR (you then set up the VCR to record from the scart socket).Time has moved on (much quicker than it used to - or so it seems at my age) and my previous advice on residential telephony has been or is now gradually being overtaken by changes in the retail market. Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.0 -
The are two ways;
Scart from Sky box into video then another from the video to the TV.(providing your Video has 2 scart sockets,they should also be labeled which is in/out ect)Then you record from AV source on the Video.
RF Aerial lead from Sky box to Video RF IN,the RF lead from Video to TV Aerial port. Select a channel on the Video (I use #6) & tune the Video into the Sky box (Normally channel 60/65) then tune the TV into the video.(easiest way is to play a Video tape & tune the TV until you can see what you are playing.)0 -

After you click Edit, 4 buttons appear along the bottom of the box. Delete is the second one in from the right.
